Abstract Super‐hydrophobic surfaces, with a water contact angle (CA) greater than 150°, have attracted much interest for both fundamental research and practical applications. Recent studies on lotus rice leaves reveal that super‐hydrophobic surface large CA small sliding (α) needs the cooperation of micro‐ nanostructures, arrangement microstructures this can influence way droplet tends to move. These results from natural world provide guide constructing artificial surfaces designing...
The wetting/antiwetting behavior of liquid droplets on a solid surface is not an apparent or simple contact between two phases, but among three phases. Inspired by the antiwetting oil fish scales in water, superoleophobic and low-adhesive interface created substrate with micro/nanohierarchical structures, using oil/water/solid three-phase systems.
A water contact angle exceeding 170° is exhibited by the surface of aligned polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers without any treatment (the picture shows a cross-sectional view as-synthesized nanofibers). The were obtained simply extruding PAN solution through an anodic alumina template into solidifying solution. factors that govern hydrophobicity nanostructures are discussed.
Abstract Solar-driven water evaporation represents an environmentally benign method of purification/desalination. However, the efficiency is limited by increased salt concentration and accumulation. Here, we propose energy reutilizing strategy based on a bio-mimetic 3D structure. The spontaneously formed film, with thickness inhomogeneity temperature gradient, fully utilizes input through Marangoni effect results in localized crystallization. rate 2.63 kg m −2 h −1 , >96% under one sun...
In this review, the recent advances in inks, strategies, and applications of inkjet-printed wearable electronics have been summarized.
Abstract Inspired by biological systems that have the inherent skill to generate considerable bioelectricity from salt content in fluids with highly selective ion channels and pumps on cell membranes, herein, a fully abiotic single‐pore nanofluidic energy‐harvesting system efficiently converts Gibbs free energy form of salinity gradient into electricity is demonstrated. The maximum power output individual nanopore approaches ∼26 pW. By exploiting parallelization, estimated density can be...
1 XPS survey spectra of ACNT film was shown in Figure before treatment. results show that the mainly consists carbon accompanied by traces nitrogen, oxygen and iron. Nitrogen iron are generated during metal phthalocyanines decomposition (S. M. Huang, L. Dai, A. W. H. Mau, J. Phys. Chem. B 1999, 103, 4223.), while is considered to probably originate from top-end CNTs oxidized air. (H. Ago, T. Kugler, F. Cacialli, R. Salaneck, S. P. Shaffer, Windle, Friend, 8116.)
Poly(vinyl alcohol), an inherently amphiphilic material, can act as a superhydrophobic surface when deposited nanofibers on aluminum oxide membrane (see picture). The arrangement of the hydrophobic and hydrophilic functional groups, both in within interior has marked effect activity.

Understanding the mechanism of ice adhesion on surfaces is crucial for anti-icing surfaces, and it not clear if superhydrophobic could reduce adhesion. Here, we investigate model with different wettabilities. The results show that surface cannot adhesion, strength superhydrophilic one almost same. This can be rationalized by mechanical interlocking between texture. Moreover, find increases linearly area fraction air in contact liquid.
A colorful humidity sensitive photonic crystal (PC) hydrogel was facilely fabricated by infiltrating acrylamide (AAm) solution into a P(St–MMA–AA) PC template and subsequently photo-polymerizing. The color of the samples to humidity; it could reversibly vary from transparent violet, blue, cyan, green red under various conditions, covering whole visible range. This be attributed sensitivity sample's stopband, with maximum change 240 nm resulting varying humidity. Furthermore, response showed...
Potassium is especially crucial in modulating the activity of muscles and nerves whose cells have specialized ion channels for transporting potassium. Normal body function extremely depends on regulation potassium concentrations inside within a certain range. For life science, undoubtedly, it significant challenging to study imitate these processes happening living organisms with convenient artificial system. Here we report novel biomimetic nanochannel system which has an concentration...
A spontaneous and controllable removal of condensed microdroplets at high supersaturation via self-propelled jumping is achieved by introducing a designed micropore array on nanostructured superhydrophobic surface. The fabricated surface was demonstrated to delay the ice formation for 1 hour −15 °C with 6.97.
A multifluidic coaxial electrospinning approach is reported here to fabricate core/shell ultrathin fibers with a novel nanowire-in-microtube structure from more optional fluid pairs than routine electrospinning. The advantage of this lies in the fact that it introduces an extra middle between core and shell fluids traditional electrospinning, which can work as effective spacer decrease interaction other two fluids. Under protection proper fluid, pairs, even mutually miscible fluids, be...
